單元檢測（四十一）Ethnic Culture.閱讀理解AWe are sailing toward the San Blas Archipelago, a chain of more than 360 islands in the Caribbean Sea.“Theres a boat！” Our daughter Hayley shouts suddenly.Three men, far out at sea, are in a canoe called a cayuco. We pull up near them and they offer to sell us a spiny lobster (龍蝦), but they have not caught enough for each of us.“Un momento, por favor One moment, please，” the man says.He dives overboard, holding his breath, goes down 40 feet, and comes back up with another lobster in his bare hands! We buy the lobsters and visit with the men.These fishermen are the Kuna Indians from the San Blas Islands. The Kuna Indians have made their homes famous because of their efforts to protect their rain forests, their independence, and their culture.For more than 400 years, the Kuna Indians have fought to keep their traditional way of life. Theyve formed their own system of government and laws. Theyve kept the Kuna language, though many speak Spanish, too. And while visitors are welcome, nonKuna people are not allowed to own land.Once we are on the island, we visit the sahila, or chief. It is an important part of Kuna culture for a visitor to receive an invitation and pay a fee to the sahila before entering his village. We walk around the village and look at the way the Kuna people live. Kuna villages vary in size. They can range from a few dwellings (住所) to large villages with some modern conveniences.Hayley and her brother Jackson are being homeschooled while we are traveling on our boat. Part of our homeschool day is spent learning about the countries and people we visit. Earlier today we read about Kuna foods and money. The Kuna eat a lot of fish, lobsters and coconuts (椰子). The coconut is also used for money. Each coconut tree has a Kuna owner, so the coconuts cannot be taken or touched.語篇解讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章介紹了生活在巴拿馬圣布拉斯群島上的庫納印第安人。1According to the text, the Kuna Indians have been trying their best to _.Aexpand their landBprevent strangers visitingCkeep their traditions aliveDlearn more about the outside world解析：選C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第六段中的“their efforts to protect their rain forests, their independence, and their culture”和第七段的“the Kuna Indians have fought to keep their traditional way of life”可知，庫納印第安人一直致力于保護(hù)他們的傳統(tǒng)文化。2Why does the authors family visit the sahila?ATo ask for his help.BTo show respect for him.CTo invite him to travel with them.DTo get permission to enter his village.解析：選D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由倒數(shù)第二段的“It is an important part of Kuna culture for a visitor to receive an invitation and pay a fee to the sahila before entering his village.”可知，作者拜訪sahila是為了得到進(jìn)村的許可。3The main purpose of this text is to introduce _.Athe meaning of travelingBthe benefits of homeschoolingCthe history of the San Blas IslandsDthe native people living on the San Blas Islands解析：選D寫作意圖題。作者在駛向圣布拉斯群島的路途中偶遇了三個庫納印第安漁夫，從而進(jìn)一步介紹了生活在該群島上的庫納印第安人。BThat woman carried a new blanket over her arm. Wordlessly, she gave it to me.“Is it finished？” I asked.She shook her head. “No. It is ready，” she replied. I handed her the money and took the blanket.“It is beautiful, so skillfully woven (編織)，” I said to my mother. “But what did she mean when she said it was not finished? How can it be ready if it is not finished？”“I will tell you later，” my mother said, “but first I will take you to the Navajo village.”We went down to the village. A group of young men were making sand pictures. We walked through the whole village, watching the different things the people were doing.It was not until that evening that my mother finally explained the Navajo womans words.“Did you notice anything about the things the people were making？” my mother asked.“What should I have noticed？” I looked at her and asked.“Each thing the Navajo make has one small part that is not complete. The designs in their sand pictures are often not perfectly done, for example the line of a circle may not quite close. If you look carefully at your blanket, you will probably find a stitch (一針) missing.”I took the blanket off, but it looked as perfect as any design could be. Then suddenly, I noticed that sure enough a stitch was missing!“But why do the Navajo intentionally leave some tiny part unfinished？” I asked.“They believe that when anything is completed or finished, it means the end has come it will not be perfect until then. Then too, with a circle, they believe that they must leave a pathway for the bad spirits to run away and the good spirits to come in. So, often, they do not make the line close.”語篇解讀：本文是一篇記敘文。作者通過講述自己購買了一條毛毯，作者的母親向作者介紹了納瓦霍人奇特的文化。4The blanket the author received _.Awas poorly wovenBmade her think a lotCcost her a lot of moneyDwas finished, but not ready解析：選B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第四段中的“How can it be ready if it is not finished？”可知，既然還沒有完工，怎么能說好了呢？這讓作者思緒萬千，故選B。5Why was the author shown around the village?ATo buy more things made by the Navajo.BTo make friends with some of the Navajo.CTo have a deeper understanding of the Navajo.DTo look for the woman who sold her the blanket.解析：選C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第六段中的“We walked . watching the different things the people were doing.”和第八段中的“Did you notice . the people were making？”可知，作者的母親帶她到村子里轉(zhuǎn)一轉(zhuǎn)是為了讓她對納瓦霍人有更深的了解，故選C。6Which of the following may the Navajo believe?AA stitch in time is very important.BLife only becomes perfect when you die.CHe who makes no mistake is a perfect man.DYou must always try to make your life complete.解析：選B推理判斷題。由最后一段中的“They believe that when anything is completed or finished, it means the end has come it will not be perfect until then.”可知，納瓦霍人會認(rèn)為人只有死亡之后其人生才會變得完美，故選B。7Whats the main idea of the text?AThe Navajo are good at making things.BThe Navajo are brave and hardworking.CA blanket tells a lot about the Navajo culture.DSkills are needed to do business with the Navajo.解析：選C主旨大意題。作者通過講述自己購買的一條毛毯向我們介紹了納瓦霍人奇特的文化，故選C。.完形填空Im sitting at the airport watching people in the last minutes before their loved ones arrive or depart.A woman is trying to gather her family members together for a _1_.
